College and Sections

I began my nursing career at Waiariki Polytechnic in 1986. Since qualifying,I have worked in Quality and Improvement, Health and Safety and Theatre. The last two decades has seen me predominately working in the perioperative area.

I am currently employed as a perioperative nurse in a private health care facility, that specialises in plastics, cosmetic and vascular surgery. 

I have a passion for Infection Prevention and Control and was instrumental in growing the facilities IPC Committee. I now sit with pride on the IPCNC committee. I also have a passion for advocacy, and believe putting the patient at the centre of decision making is paramount.

I am now looking forward to representing Colleges and Sections on the Membership Committee.

Debra IsaacDebra Isaac

Greater Auckland

I emigrated from South Africa 10 years ago, and have been nursing for ... a long time. I studied in South Africa, and in four years incorporated Midwifery, Community nursing and Psychology nursing.

I trained as a trauma nurse and worked in EC for two years before moving into Critical Care Nursing, Neurosurgery, General Surgery, and Medical.

Right now, I'm at CMDHB, in the CCC and my passion has always been to care for the sick patient, and ensuring nurses are also cared for. I'm a:

  • Regional Delegate
  • Greater Auckland Regional (GAR) Committee member
  • Management Committee Member for GAR
  • and now, a Member of the Membership Committee.

As nurses we put ourselves out there physically, mentally, and emotionally, giving all of ourselves to a career we chose and love. As a Membership Committee member, and a voice for our members of NZNO I'm putting myself out there to you all. I want to know:

  • What do you want from your union?
  • Do you have any questions and/or ideas to help us build a strong union we are proud off?

Feel free to flick me an email at debra.isaac@middlemore.co.nz

I completed Bachelor of Nursing from South West coast of India and since been a member of Trained Nurses Association of India.

I joined NZNO upon starting my career at Northland DHB as a theatre nurse. I became a workplace delegate in 2015 and started representing my colleagues at bipartite meetings and regional council meetings.

I represent NZNO at the FTE working group at Northland DHB. My delegate role has been instrumental in setting up a Local Data Council in the department of perioperative services, which I consider as one of my biggest achievements. I have also completed post Graduate Diploma in Advanced Nursing from University of Auckland.
